Which would mean fun, fun, fun since grub2 menu item would be after grub item; this would mean that grub2 needs either: - to be before grub2 in the order - not to load grub at all by default (probably the best choice) - force somehow, through a dependency the dependency on grub2, making grub2 the default choice I faced the same issue with ppp-udeb for which initially I set its menu-item-number to be 18 (they were up to 100 back then), but it was not chosen since it ordered after netcfg, so I had to set it to 17, so it has priority when is loaded. -- Regards, EddyP ============================================= "Imagination is more important than knowledge" A.Einstein
